I'm toying with the idea of expanding my 6mm sci-fi gaming to include the Five Powers setting for MAATAC (Multifunctional Armed and Armored Tactical Attack Computer)--the same universe as the Starfleet Wars spaceship combat rules. Monday Knight has the vehicles and robot units here: link -- however, there are no infantry figures for this line, and the rules call for conventional infantry as well as the robotic troops. So what lines of 6mm infantry would you recommend for the following alien species: Aquarian:
Avarian:
Carnivoran:
Entomalian:
You can find details on these factions here: link I'm also curious about what line of human troops would fit the style of the Terrans:
Thanks for any pointers. |

Check DRMs Kraytonians and Skyth, link CinCs Raptors, Felinoids and MARTAHK link Onslaught's Avians link and Legion Aliens link and Exodus Wars Terragin link
For humans, check DRM PAX, Exodus Wars Guild, TMG Novans, CinC's SEM and Microworld
Exodus Wars, Onslaught and TMG are all on the Exodus Wars site, BTW
And if you were on the Tactical Command site link you'd have known all this already
Joining is free and you can surf anytime regardless

Hi Scribe, Legion 4 beat me to the punch. All of the lines he suggests are good proxies for the Starfleet Wars Five Powers. I've got links to all of those manufacturers on PLANET ARES VI Just scroll to the bottom to find the links. |

Microworld Games has some minis that might make passable Entomalians; the Kreen |

Yes, those could work too ! Now U beat me to it ! Oh and here's a pic of the Matahk Fish Men, [they have not got around to post pics yet on the CinC site]
Here's a close up
the Matahk are the 2 on the botton
the other 3 are CinC "Reds" –

Thanks for the prompt responses, Legion 4 and Maj. Diz Aster! I appreciate your help, and I will give those ranges a look. One caveat on the Entomalians: It's not clear from the picture, but they're supposed to have four arms. Any figures like that in 6mm? |
Legion 4 | 27 Apr 2014 9:15 a.m. PST |
Onslaught Legion Aliens
some have 4 arms
|

I'm not sure. Legion 4, any manufacturers come to mind? Never mind- you just posted an example ahead of this |
Legion 4 | 27 Apr 2014 9:23 a.m. PST |
Onslaught – see 4 arms here – link |

BTW, here's a list I did on Tac Cmd a few months back
Well off the top of my head, just for the exercise – GZG makes Bugs like seen in SST, and Kra'Vak that look llittle like Predator aliens. DRM – Andrayadas = Androids , Kraytonians = High tech Lizardmen, Skyth = Bugs. Exodus Wars – Tarragin = Feral Lizardmen , Gurden = "Demonic Dragons" , Edenites = Androids & Zombies , Khazari = Space Dwarves/"Squats". CinC/PFC – Felids = Cat people , Ha-Lu-Ki – large 4 armed "frogs'' , Raptors = High tech Lizardmen , Marthak (Fishmen) & Cyborgs (Yellow 1-eyed Minions) = humanoid Aliens, Gastater = humanoid Aliens (with weird helms), Alien Mercs = see here : viewtopic.php?f=7&t=26837
MicroWorld – Kreen = Wasp and Frog type aliens , Lizard Riders = Exodite types , Beastkin = High Tech Bovine Aliens. Onslaught – Avians = Hawkmen aliens , Legion = Hybrid Cultists aliens , Okami = Very Hi-tech humaniod aliens, Sectnids = Hornet/Wasp like bug aliens. Plasmablast Games – Orbital Combine = Robots/Androids. Zombiesmith – Quar = Upright Ant Eater type aliens in WWI/Early WWII regalia. Darkest Star – Khiff = Upright Canine aliens in PA . Brigade – Cimexian = Bugs/Slug/slimy type aliens. Baccus/Command Horizen[sold to another company ?] – Alien Centaur-like creatures and worms. Troublemaker Games – Skinners & Gobblers = Redskin bald brutish ape/monkey like aliens , Eloi = pointy-eared big headed hi-tech aliens
